24-Channel Automotive Switch Monitor

9-4464; Rev ; 2/9 EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE 24-Channel Automotive Switch Monitor General Description The is a 24-channel automotive contact monitor designed as an interface between mechanical switches and low-voltage processors or other logic circuits. The IC operates over a voltage range of 5.5V to 28V, and withstands voltages up to 4V. It protects lowvoltage circuitry from high voltages and reverse battery conditions. The s low-current operation under all operating conditions makes it suitable for use in electronic control units (ECUs) that are connected directly to the automotive battery. It has an adjustable scan mode that significantly reduces the current drawn in key-off. The features an SPI interface to monitor the switch status and set the device configuration. Multiple s can be cascaded to support any multiple of 24 switches. The is available in a 6mm x 6mm, 4-pin thin QFN package and operates over the -4 C to +25 C temperature range.

Detailed Description The is a 24-channel automotive contact monitor designed as an interface between mechanical switches and low-voltage microcontrollers or other logic circuits. It features an SPI interface to monitor individual switch inputs and to configure interrupt capability, wetting current, switch configuration (battery-connected or ground-connected), polling time and polling active time. Any switch status change will cause an interrupt signal if the switch is interrupt enabled. The has three modes of operation: continuous mode, polling mode, and shutdown mode. V DD and VS V DD is the power-supply input for the logic input/ output circuitry. Connect V DD to a 3V to 5.5V logic-level supply. Bypass V DD to GND with at least a.µf capacitor placed as close as possible to V DD. VS is the main power-supply input. Bypass VS to GND with a.µf ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to VS. In addition, bypass VS with a 47µF or greater capacitor. Mechanical Switch Inputs (IN IN23) IN IN23 are the inputs for remote mechanical switches. The switch status is indicated by the S S23 bits in the status register, and each switch input can be programmed to assert an interrupt (INT) by writing to the IE IE23 bits in the command register. All switch inputs are interrupt disabled upon power-up. The IN4 IN22 inputs are intended for ground-connected switches. The IN IN3 and IN23 inputs can be programmed for either ground-connected switches or battery-connected switches by writing to the LH LH3 and LH23 bits (see Table 2). The default configuration of the IN IN3 and IN23 inputs after power-up is for ground-connected switches. Wetting Current The applies a programmable wetting current to any closed switch to clean switch contacts that are exposed to adverse conditions. The wetting current for each switch can be set to ma, 5mA, ma, or 5mA by the W_. and W_. data bits in the command registers (see Table 5) by means of an SPI data transaction. When using wetting current, special care must be taken to avoid exceeding the maximum power dissipation of the (see the Applications Information section). Disabling the wetting current or limiting the active-wetting current time reduces power consumption. The default state upon power-up is with wetting current disabled. Interrupt Output (INT) INT is an active-low, open-drain output that asserts low when any of the switch inputs change state and is enabled for interrupts, or when the overtemperature threshold is exceeded. An external pullup resistor to V DD is needed on INT. INT is cleared when CS is driven low for a read/write operation. However, in polling mode, any switch state change or overtemperature change which occurs during an SPI transaction is stored and causes an additional interrupt after the SPI transaction is over and CS goes high (shown in Figure 2). If V DD is absent, the INT output is functional provided that it is pulled up to a different supply voltage. CS SWITCH STATUS CHANGE CLK INT NEW INTERRUPT Figure 2. Switch State Change During the SPI transaction 9

Serial Peripheral Interface (CS, SDO, SDI, CLK) The operates as a serial peripheral interface (SPI) slave device. An SPI master accesses and programs the by reading/writing the control registers. The control registers are 32 bits wide, have 2 command bits (or register addresses) and 3 data bits (see Table ). Figure 3 shows the read/write sequence through SPI. The SPI logic counts the number of bits clocked into the IC (using a modulo-32 counter so that daisy chaining is possible) and enables data latching only if exactly 32 bits (or an integer multiple thereof) have been clocked in. Status Register The status register contains the status of the switches connected to IN IN23. The status register also contains an overtemperature warning bit, a power-on-reset bit and a device type bit (see Table ). The status register is accessed by the SPI-compatible interface.

WETTING CURRENT (ma) * 5 5 *Default POR value. LP: Low Quiescent Current Bit In polling mode, when LP is set to, the IC is operating with the lowest quiescent current. The channels that are not enabled to interrupt have their wetting current disabled and are not monitored. The first pulse of wetting current after the switch is closed and sampled is 5mA unless the wetting current for that channel is set to ma. The default value of LP after power-on is. When LP is, all channels are monitored and the wetting current for each channel is set to the value determined by W_. and W_.. If the is in continuous mode, LP is ignored. Operating Modes The features three modes of operation: continuous mode, polling mode, and shutdown mode. In continuous mode, the wetting currents (if enabled) are continuously applied to the closed switches. In polling mode, the wetting currents are applied to the closed switches for a preset duration to reduce the power consumption. In shutdown mode, all switch inputs are high impedance and all circuitry is shutdown. Continuous Mode Operation (P P3 = ) In continuous mode, reading of the switch status is initiated by a falling edge on CS. The microcontroller initiates a low pulse on CS to update the switch status register. If INT remains high, no action needs be taken by the microcontroller. If INT goes low, the microcontroller may perform a read operation to read the updated switch status. On the rising edge of CS, INT is updated. To get correct data, the microcontroller must wait µs before initiating a switch status read operation. (See Figure 4.) CS INT SWITCH STATUS CHANGE Figure 4. Continuous Mode Operation INT UPDATED, PERFORM READ OPERATION Polling-Mode Operation In polling mode (see Figure 5), each switch input is sampled for a programmable polling active time set by the PA PA2 bits between 64µs and 4ms (see Table 4). Sampling is repeated at a period set by the P P3 bits (from 4ms to continuous, see Table 3). All switch inputs are sampled simultaneously at the end of the polling active time. Wetting currents (if enabled) are applied to closed switches during the polling active time. Therefore, the polling mode reduces the current consumption from the VS power supply to some value dependent on the polling time chosen.

Any switch position change (if the switch is interruptenabled) is signaled through the active-low open-drain INT output. The INT output is cleared when CS goes low. Shutdown Mode In shutdown mode, all switch inputs are high impedance and the external switches are no longer monitored, reducing current consumption on VS to 6µA (typ). The IC resets upon entering shutdown mode and the contents of the command registers are lost. Therefore, any setting other than power-on-reset defaults needs to be reprogrammed after exiting from the shutdown mode. Applications Information Overtemperature Protection If the IC junction temperature exceeds +65 C, an interrupt signal is generated and the wetting currents are disabled to reduce the on-chip power dissipation. During an overtemperature event, the last switch status is retained in internal memory and the switch status is not updated. The interrupt output is cleared when CS goes high, but the overtemperature bit T in the output word remains for as long as the overtemperature condition persists. When the junction temperature drops by 5 C, the wetting currents are re-enabled and there is a ms blanking time before the switches can be polled. Reverse-Battery Tolerance The IN IN23 switch inputs withstand up to -5V DC voltage without damage. A reverse-battery diode is needed to protect VS as shown in the Typical Application Circuit. SD can be controlled from a battery-level source but should be protected against reverse battery in the application. Wetting Current and Power Dissipation The maximum power dissipation happens when all switch inputs configured with 5mA continuous wetting current are all closed. Assuming the battery voltage is 4V, the corresponding power dissipated by the IC is 24 x 4V x 5mA = 54mW. This exceeds the absolute maximum power dissipation of 2963mW. In polling mode, the wetting currents are pulsed at the programmed polling time to reduce the total power dissipated in the IC. ISO 7637 Pulse Immunity VS, SD, and IN IN23 are potentially exposed to ISO 7637 pulses. Bypass VS with a.µf and a 47µF capacitor. The VS and SD voltage must be limited below 4V during load dump. Bypass IN IN23 with at least.47µf capacitors at the ECU connector. When IN IN3 or IN23 inputs are used with battery-connected switches, a Ω series resistor is needed. These external components allow VS, SD, and IN IN23 to withstand ISO 7637 pulses in the application circuit. Mechanical Switch Characteristics The is designed to operate with switches that have the following characteristics: ) Minimum resistance value with switch open (due to leakage): kω. 2) Maximum resistance value with switch closed: Ω.
